The most precious thing in life is time.
About me / Bio:
Bolesław Prus was a Polish writer, journalist, and social activist who lived in the second half of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. He was one of the leading figures of the Positivist movement in Polish literature, which aimed to promote social progress and scientific development in the partitioned Poland. He was also a pioneer of Polish realism, creating vivid and complex characters and plots that reflected the political, economic, and cultural realities of his time. Prus wrote four major novels: The Outpost, The Doll, The New Woman, and Pharaoh, as well as numerous short stories, essays, and newspaper columns. He was a keen observer and critic of the contemporary society, especially the urban life of Warsaw, which he portrayed with humor and irony. He was also interested in various fields of knowledge, such as history, psychology, sociology, and technology. He advocated for education, democracy, and human rights, and opposed violence and oppression. He was a mentor and friend of many younger writers, such as Stefan Żeromski, Władysław Reymont, and Maria Konopnicka. He died of appendicitis in 1912, at the age of 64, and was buried at the Powązki Cemetery in Warsaw. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest and most influential Polish writers of all time.
